End of the World, Rebirth as a Queen

After walking for more than an hour, they entered a forest. Most of the trees had lost their leaves, leaving only bare trunks.

Although there are many evergreen trees, it is late autumn according to normal seasons, and it is the end of the world and the four seasons are in chaos, so they are not very energetic.

When Xuan Guang hit countless spider webs and started sneezing, Lu Zhu belatedly realized that something was wrong.

"Stop, something's wrong..." she began.

"I wonder too, why are there so many spider webs here?" Luo Chenyang had already broken off a branch to sweep the spider webs, but now the branch was no longer visible, and it seemed as if he was holding a gray fan in his hand.

Everyone, who originally thought it was normal to have spider webs in the woods, became serious. There weren't so many spider webs at the beginning.

It was gradual, with only a few scattered spider webs on the outskirts of the woods, with a few spider webs at intervals.

The further you go, the more spider webs you see. The color of the spider webs changes from transparent white to dense white. The spider webs also change from single webs to continuous webs.

Lu Zhu and his companions were walking on the old cement road, which was a must-have road in the village. It was at least one or two meters wide, not a dirt road on the mountain, and was not overgrown with weeds.

Logically speaking, even if there are spider webs, there shouldn't be so many of them and they shouldn't be so dense. And according to the people I met by the stream, this road should have been walked on by people. Why is it like this now?

Everyone looked at each other, and all of them had a bad feeling.

"Can we take a detour instead of going this way?" Zhou Yifeng asked.

Chen Hua took out the map, took a quick look, and determined the location~

After a while, he said, "No, if we take a detour, we have to go around two mountains. This is the only way to get there directly, and we don't know what the situation is over there!"

"What should we do? Should we leave or not?" Niu Desheng spoke in dialect.

"It's too late to leave. We've already walked most of the way through the forest. If there was anything, they should have noticed it by now. It's not wise to go back." Lu Zhu said calmly. She jumped off Xuan Guang's back and picked up a strand of spider silk.

Now they are like insects caught in a spider web. As long as there is any movement on the web, the spider's tentacles can quickly sense it.

"Find some branches and light a torch~" This time it was Chen Huafa who said, "In the animal and plant kingdoms, they are all afraid of fire. They won't dare to approach someone with fire in their hands."

Everyone nodded and looked around hurriedly for materials that could be used to make torches.

The remaining three children, Xie He, Qi Xiaoyu and Hu Xinjie, all gathered around Xuan Guang to seek shelter.

Although it was still daytime, they lit torches for safety reasons to prevent a fire. Chen Hua asked everyone to be careful and put out any fire in time.

This time, Chen Hua, Luo Chenyang, and Xu Qizhou were the first to leave, clearing the cobwebs and debris on the road as they walked.

Xuan Guang followed behind them to take precautions and be prepared for any emergency.

But the strange thing is, after walking for a long time and feeling like we were almost out of the forest, nothing happened except that there were more and more spider webs.

"What's going on? It's been so long, where is the spider?" Yin Ze asked in confusion, waving a torch and burning the spider webs near him.

In fact, other people had the same idea. How come after such a long time, they only saw spider webs and not a single spider?

The spider web in front of him became thicker and higher. Although spider webs were afraid of fire, when the spider web was as high as a wall or even higher, it still gave him an invisible sense of oppression.

I really want the imagined danger to come soon, but I also want it to never come. It’s a very contradictory mentality.

Just when everyone was still confused, with a puff, the torch led by Chen Hua burned the spider web in front of them that was as high as a city wall.

Unlike before when there was one layer after another, this time his hand went through all at once.

"Burned through?!" Chen Hua was a little surprised. He was obviously numb from the burn and hadn't reacted yet when it was pierced through.

“Wear it?” Yin Ze at the back was the first to jump up.

Facing Luo Chenyang in front, Xu Qizhou was still relatively calm. He just used his hands a little faster to burn the spider web and create a big gap to get out.

From the size of a small ball, it quickly expanded to the size of a goal in just a few breaths.

At this moment, the people behind also rushed to the front to check the situation.

"What is this?" Zhang Qing covered her mouth with her hands, her eyes popping out in surprise.

"Oh my God, how could this happen..." Zhou Yifeng turned back nervously to look for Lu Zhu.

"Are we at the spider's nest now..." Li Shaoqiu suddenly grabbed Xu Qizhou beside him.

"Pinch me, it can't be true..." Lin Siru pushed Xie Tang and asked him to help her confirm it.

Xie Tang frowned and held on to Xie He beside him. Xie He was a little confused. He looked at the scene in front of him and then at his brother.

Xuan Guang let out a low growl like a wild beast at this time. Lu Zhu looked at the scene in front of him and touched its neck soothingly.

All I saw was a vast expanse of white before my eyes. How can I describe it?

It is in the shape of a funnel, but it is woven with spider webs.

Just like the largest astronomical telescope, the "Eye of the Sky", it has some bulges in the middle, but the surrounding area is completely covered by spider silk.

They are located at the very edge of the funnel, and if they go in, they would be like ants in a casserole.

Everyone couldn't help but swallow.

"This, this should be... the nest of the mutated spider~" Niu Desheng said stutteringly, and wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.

“What should we do? Looking at the area, even if we go around a few mountains, we still can’t get through~” Hu Xinjie supported one of Xuan Guang’s legs with his legs weak.

"Why don't you leave? Why are you all standing there?" Just when everyone was at a loss and confused, a voice came from behind them.

Everyone turned around and saw five people coming from the path they had opened.

Hmm! It feels like the previous generation plants trees and the next generation enjoys the shade~

But no one responded to them. They just made way for them to pass a path wide enough for one person to pass through, and let them figure out the situation themselves.

The distance between them was only ten meters, so they walked very quickly and reached the opening opened by Chen Hua and his team in just a few breaths.

Lu Zhu frowned slightly. They came here silently. At least she didn't sense anyone following them before she looked at the spider's nest.

They came too coincidentally, too quickly, too suddenly~

There aren't so many coincidences in the world. Lu Zhu subconsciously felt that something was fishy...

"This is quite large! It must cover a small county town!" The man looked at the spider's nest in front and said as he watched.

"I feel like this is a bit of a big deal. Long Wu, let's notify the higher-ups! We need support here~"

"Okay, deputy captain~" the person behind him agreed, quickly took out a communicator from his pocket, adjusted the frequency, and started communicating.

Don't treat Lu Zhu and his group as outsiders at all~

It is also possible that I really don't take them seriously~
